Cracking when opening and folding

[Devontayy]

I got this phone since launch and now I noticed that when I open and close the phone I hear a cracking noise is it my inner screen protector should I just pull it off or leave it on there is no dents but I see a hug air bubble between the center of my screen as if it's in a straight line 

Z fold 4 is what I have

Hello Devontayy, Welcome to the Community. It would be difficult to know if the screen protector is what is causing the cracking noise without an evaluation. We do not recommend changing the screen protector yourself. 

Samsung does offer the Z assurance program for the Flips and Folds. You can find out more information here: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/service/z-screen-protector-promo/
